CamelBak was the originator, and today is the world leader in hands-free hydration systems. The first CamelBak products proved to be very popular with mountain bikers and motocross riders because they allow drinking without taking hands off of the handlebars, a great thing when riding over technical terrain. The product began to cross over into other sports when scientific studies showed athletes drank more fluids and rode better when they wore a CamelBak.

Since those early days, athletes from an ever-growing list of sports and activities enjoy and benefit from using CamelBak hydration systems. In addition to cycling, CamelBak has hydration systems for hiking, running, snowboarding and skiing. CamelBak also makes women's and kid’s packs.

We love these hydration systems for a number of reasons, and especially because they work so well. Along with supplying a hands-free source of fluid, these packs are great for carrying your tools, snacks and extra clothing. There are also compartments in the pack that help keep everything organized and easy to find. Thoughtful features like these make CamelBaks easy, fun and convenient to use.

CamelBak’s attention to detail makes an incredible difference, too. For example, the shoulder straps self adjust so the pack fits more comfortably, which is important for active people. On certain models, a shoulder strap doubles as an insulating sleeve to keep your water cool or prevent it from freezing. And CamelBak's Big Bite and Hydrolock Shut-Off Valve makes for easy and fast drinking with no leaking.

With many innovative and useful features and accessories, CamelBak makes a hydration system that's just right for your favorite sport, leisurely outing or great adventure.
